An edited chat log of a session with Mythic Entertainment's Mark Jacobs may be seen at UnknownPlayer. During the first part of the event, the topic was the newly announced Imperator. One question asked about the type combat emphasis and the leveling treadmill:

Imperator is going to be designed for the PvE players. However, we would lose out on a major portion of the coolness of Rome if we didn't have a way to use the concept of gladiators within the game. :) And yes, we already have some ideas for that. In terms of the levelling treadmill, while time is certainly has to be part of any of these games, I don't want people to look at Imperator and say "Just another boring leveling treadmill" If that happens, the result will be very, very bad for Imperator and Mythic.

As we learned in conjunction with our Imperator Q&A with Mark earlier this week, the game is still in the research stage, with no team other than himself. - Jonric
